The message woke me just after 3 this morning. Replaying events from the previous 24 hours. Asking to be shown what I was missing. Which is when it hit me: There’s a shit-ton of sheep walking around in wolves clothing. Now before you get all uppity with me, I have no problem with sheep. I […]

Had you seen me yesterday, you would have stood in bewilderment. Shaking your head in sympathy. Convinced that I’d finally lost my shit. Completely. Utterly. But you didn’t, nobody did, because they were all still sleeping. Whilst I was out, fighting my demons; my fears, dripping thickly in my throat. Challenging, taunting, calling me weak, […]

﻿ Stop it. Stop telling me that you want to be successful when you’re not prepared to be uncomfortable.

I see […]

Good morning Sunshine. What you up to this week? Are you going to astound us with your brilliance? Are you going to create something so incredible that those around you will sit, mouths wide open, wondering who this delightful being of magnificence is? Are you going to go full out for everything that you’ve ever […]

I can spot them a mile away- – the ‘thinkers’. They normally have a frown deeply creased into their foreheads. There’s a dark cloud hanging around them. Their energy is low. They talk in problems. Always trying to puzzle out whatever is eating them. They will start thinking of a goal they really want to […]

Today I’m speaking to the hearts of the men of our time. The winds of change has finally arrived. A time when gentle breezes are bowing down to hurricanes. Vicious. Causing destruction. Ripping up the old. Showing you the underbelly of the beast. That which has come before you. Which you so unquestioningly accepted as […]

When did life become so serious? To the point that it appears most have left their sense of humour behind in the previous century. I suspect it came along the same time as the rise of the fathers of psychology. Oh Yes, I’m going there today. I’m stirring the pot with my shit-spoon 😉 Simply […]
